News

Graduating seniors, don’t lose your stuff! Graduation is an exciting time for every Tiger, but it unfortunately does mean a change to some of the software and services you’ve grown accustomed to during your time at Clemson. Learn how to prepare your technology and data before graduation.


Clemson’s CheckIT technology governance process has new updates to streamline approvals. Submit requests before making any purchase to avoid delays, and have the actual user submit rather than a proxy for faster processing. Recent updates include an expanded exceptions list, particularly for faculty using free research applications on the Palmetto Cluster.


Beware of SEO poisoning, where cybercriminals manipulate search results to push fake websites to the top. These malicious sites can steal your credentials or install malware. Protect yourself by carefully checking URLs for misspellings, being cautious of sponsored results, and typing trusted website addresses directly into your browser instead of searching for them.
